Rebalance Your Life
My signature online positive personal development course puts you back at the centre of your life. I will work closely with you to give you a greater sense of perspective on how to balance your many responsibilities, find ways to destress, cope with challenge, and rediscover what makes you tick again.
Who is this for?
Busy people who need to change their lives for the better
Life can feel overwhelming when your priorities are all over the place. I want you to know that you can feel calmer, clearer, and back in control of your life. Drawing on evidence-backed techniques, I will help you build the skills to tackle short term stress and long term challenge in a resilient and sustainable way. With simple, practical steps, this course is designed to fit into your hectic life and give you clear strategies for coping, setting priorities, and moving from constant stress and overwhelm to create a life that feels aligned and manageable again.

How does it work?
My four-week course is inspired by Western positive psychology, Eastern traditions of mindfulness and Ikigai, and some music psychology! I’ve designed the course to fit into your busy life and be highly flexible to enable everyone who needs it to access it. You will get plenty of tailored information to help you make positive change – but you also need to do a small amount of personal work during the four weeks in order to see the effects.
The next course will start on Monday 5 January 2026, and consists of:
– A weekly online session for four consecutive weeks – Mondays at 09:00 UTC / GMT, including 30 minutes of content followed by optional live discussion
– The opportunity to have your questions answered in bonus Q&A sessions on Thursdays at 17:00 UTC / GMT
– One hour of one-to-one coaching to be arranged in the final two weeks of the course, to focus on issues of your choosing relating to the course content
All group sessions will be recorded for those unable to attend live, and available for a month. All sessions take place on Zoom.
Who am I?
Alex King
Director, Bluebird Happiness Consultancy
As a former professor of psychology and someone who’s navigated their fair share of life’s stresses and strains, I bring my personal and professional experience, optimism, and enthusiasm to my online programmes. My approach is thoroughly grounded in scientific evidence – no groundless fluff, woo, or AI-generated materials! – yet flexible enough to account for your individual circumstances.

Alex is a skilled and generous coach, with so much experience and personal wisdom. She is never stuck for suggestions. The creative addition of music and mindfulness add a spiritual aspect to the learning. The tools and activities are accessible and simple. And the journey of self discovery and slow building of self esteem that Alex invites us to embark on feels rich. I would definitely recommend Bluebird and Alex.
The course was easy to fit into my busy schedule but in that short time I learnt a lot about myself and where and who I want to be. It provided the time and space to practise and apply what I learned. The follow-up coaching session at the end of the course was a great opportunity to discuss how I can personally take the learning forward and apply in my day to day life after the course is over (rather than forgetting about it). It was a thought provoking few weeks of my life with a lot of reflection and opportunity to build new practices. I would generally consider myself an optimistic person but I’ve experienced a different level of positive energy throughout these four weeks and it’s continuing.

Alex will help you identify what you want to change, what is important to you (and not what someone else tells you is important), develop a way to get there, and importantly evaluate if it’s working. I can only recommend Alex and the approach she offers. I took one of her courses many years ago, and advocate the approach to others and still use it myself.
